barack obama voted against that. he is opposed to providing basic medical attention to a child who is born alive. that is a radical position. we've seen, as you mentioned earlier todd akin and richard murdock for their positions saying they're radical. it's radical to see a helpless newborn child who happens to survive an abortion to be shoved aside in a corner to allow to die. to be forced to die. that's radical. and then and the issue of religion i do think president obama has not gone a lot but has gone to church. that's an interesting issue because the pew research issue shows that many americans, a majority of americans actually want to see their elected officials have some affiliation with religion and recognition of god. now, i don't think obviously how far that goes there is not agreement on that. but i think in part it's because they want to know that the leaders have some sense of accountability to a higher authority. when they can't be watching the folks that they've elected at least they know god's watchi
